Ceresia Named NF Delegate
June Ceresia, ’69, a one-year
veteran of the NFCCS campus
committee, has been named NF
junior delegate until the next
regularly scheduled election in
December.
She succeeds junior Kathy Ryan
who resigned during the summer
for health reasons.
*I just feel it’s an honor and
I’ll do my best to be the senator
students want,” said the new
delegate Tuesday after her
appointment was announced.
«It should really be a good
two months,” she continued. “NF
should really become a part of
the life h e re ,” she commented
on the semester programming.
NF senior delegate Beverly
Spinda, ’68, who heads a 25-
member campus board, stated,
"It’s almost impossible for the
senior delegate to function with-_
out a junior delegate. I t's an
important position.”
“June has experience,” Bev­e
rly stated, *She’s worked e s ­pecially
on planning Nova Cores
and speakouts. Now that I do
have a junior delegate, I can get
going on the seme ste r work.
The congress repo rt will come
out next week. Programmingwill
include a couple of Nova Cores,
an agape (or feast of joy), two
speakouts, and presentation of
“The War Game.”
Gail Deegan, senate president,
explained that the special pro­cedures-
for naming the new del­egate
were necessary because
the Senate constitution does not
provide for such a situation.
Beverly addressed the junior
c la ss meeting Monday and ex­plained
the position.
June was the only
person to openly declare her
candidacy at the class meeting.
Following the nominations, the
three girls were interviewed by
President Deegan and Senator
Spinda on Tuesday. The appoint­ment
was made after their con­sultation.
At election time in December,
both senior and junior delegates
will be elected. June’s appoint­ment
is for the interim period
of two months.
“I think it’s good,” June stated.
“If the students don’t think I’ve
done an adequate job, they can
elect someone else. If they do,
they’ll have a chance to reelect
me.”
Senator Ceresia took office
a t Wednesday night’s meeting.
College 'Happening’ Honors

*A tribute to creativity”—this is how Sister Frances Regis,
chairman of the English Department, described the Department-sponsored
"Happening” for Mrs. Doris Grumbach. The event will
take place Sunday, October 1 from 2:30 to 4:00 p.m. in the Art Barn.
Sis te r enlarged upon her fir s t Manchester-Kennedy
statement: *The purpose of the controversy. As a re su lt, the gal-
‘Happening’ is to indicate thatwe j,e revised before

Mrs. Grumbach is most appre­ciative
that the event has been
changed from a tea to a happen­ing.
*I was horrified a t the idea
of going to a tea.” She feels that
the informality of the ba rn should
be fUn. “We a re never going to
be comrades, but we can be

Camille Bobrek, chairman of
the “Happening,” promises in­formality.
Dress is casual and

wish. Cider, punch, coffee, pop­corn
balls, apples, peanuts, etc.
will be served. The theme, “The

Tickets Flag
By Mary Lee Dnim
Despite re sea rch and recommendations from Resident Student
Council and a two-hour conference between the college president and
the regional manager of Crotty Brothers, CSR did not inaugurate
a meal ticket system this semester.
“Now, I don’t see how we can do other than what we’r e doing,"
declared Sister Clarence Paul, president.
As stated in the Hall Protocol, a CSR student is charged $900
annually for her room and board, and, according to Sister Clarence
Paul, the college is a non-profit organization.
T ic k e t Proposal
The ticket system was investigated la st semester by CSR and
a recommendation, dated May 1, wa s submitted to the administration.
It said:
“At the present ra te of room and board, we would like to see
a ticket system for meals. Books of tickets would be Issued monthly,
. with the tickets being equal to the monetary value of the board fee.
These tickets could be used for any combination of meals the student
desired. The student could purchase lunch with these o r with cash.
Additional books of tickets could be purchased if need be for break­fast
or dinner.”
Sister Clarence Paul wrote to Peggy Campion, president of
RSC, in July, stating that “for the coming academic year we will
not use a system of tickets for our regular meals.”
She said: “I know some of the students are anxious to have a
ticket system for meals but at the present time, I feel that we are
not in a position to accede to this request.”
In this le tte r, however, she noted complaints concerning the
breakfast menus and informed the food service to ^lave meat o r
eggs more often.
Three-fifths of the $900 annual fee is allotted to board, according
to officials. - ,
But “this does not begin to pay the bills we pay out for the food
service , remarked the college president. “The term board,” she
noted, “includes many more items than food. Salaries for staff,
utilities, supplies, and general maintenance a re contained in the
total overhead costs.” Dean Commeiits
“I can see where there is value in a ticket system,” said Sister
Alice Teresa, dean, who has been collecting information on the
systems.
She indicated that it takes a lot of work to get some thing like
this off the ground and saw a combination of problems—“both ours
and th e irs (food service ).” She said they serve approximately
120 institutions.
A Siena spokesman said they a re “pretty well satisfied” with
th e ir system. They have had meal tickets for four years. For $475
a sem e s te r room and board fee, Siena residents receive three meals
a day, seven daysaweek. Their food service is the Prophet Company.
Manager Speaks
“I never knew too much about it to. begin with,” said Mr.
McMullen, manager of our food service, of the proposal for meal
tickets. “They (RSC) didn’t know too much about it or have anything
down in black and white. I didn’t know what they wanted.”
Crotty Brothers serves “a lot of colleges," he maintained.
“We go by what they want.”
Dinner is now planned for 475 people each mght and Mr,
McMullen saw meal scheduling as the biggest problem involved
with such a system: “You’ve got to plan ahead.”
“The administration is trying everything,” he observed. Right
now the school is feeding the girls at a lo s s .” He noted thaA school
officials have asked for meat twice a week at breakfast. Also, new
machines, such as those for toast and juice, have been purchased
to facilitate the breakfast line. , ^ u
Expenses for the food service a re also skyrocketed by the
daHy waste of food, the disappearance of sUverware—“I had to
reolace $1,000 worth of silverware from September to May last
y e a r__,” and the system of served meals—Mr, McMullen prefers
*^^*“I’d have to see it on paper,” said Mr. McMullen of any new
recommendations for the meal ticket system.
Apparently, the issue has been dropped for this year.
